SAP PP (Production Planning) is the module that handles a company’s manufacturing process. It helps a factory decide what to make, when to make it, and how much raw material is needed. It ensures the machines aren’t sitting idle and that customers get their products on time.
This course will prepare you to apply and maintain master data in the area of planning and manufacturing, use and describe applications for production planning, lay the foundation for TS422 Part II of the SAP S/4HANA Production Planning & Manufacturing Academy, apply basic functions in production order management, use and describe process orders, repetitive manufacturing, and Kanban, and apply capacity planning.
This training is intended for learners looking to deepen their understanding of SAP PP in a modern S/4HANA environment, especially consultants and professionals involved in manufacturing, planning, and production operations.
A basic understanding of SAP and business processes is helpful, but the course is designed to build practical PP skills progressively and make the learning path accessible to working professionals.
The curriculum is aligned to SAP S/4HANA 2021 and focuses on the core configuration, production execution, and planning functions required in contemporary SAP manufacturing implementations.
